[atlarge-discuss] Re: [ncdnhc-discuss] WHOIS workshop comment submission address

Dear Thomas,
For years we are proposed to comment propositions on products that does not fit the real demand and which only are here in the present shape for hiistorical anachronic reasons. We do not want DNs the way they are proposed, we do not want the Whois system, we do not want the DNS organization as it is today, we do not want the Internic to be managed by ICANN as it is currently organized, etc..

You are a serious person, a moderated ICANNer and an European. Three reasons for having a competent and measured judgment: in your opinion, is it worth to spend time on all via the ICANN structure, or in so doing would we not perpetuate what we want to see replaced?

My personal feeling is that we have reached a pont where the whole "Legacy" system has become totally obsolete and unable to support stability, security and innovation for long. We saw that alternative copies (alt.root) lead to nowhere. I therefore see two possible new ways;

1. national root services to force ICANN to change style. There is only one NTIA file, no reason there is not an MII, and Indian, etc. one. This would not endanger the DNS; only the DoC/ICANN monopoly.

2. For 19 years the Internet leaves under the IANA root. This dried the emerging mid-80s community networks (SWFIT, SITA, VISA, etc..) development before it could take at human interrelations level (schools, associations, trades, cultures, religions, sports, cities, etc).

Let accept that ICANN blocks the new TLDs. But nothing prevents service and community SLDs (scSLD http://intlnet.org). Look what Congress did: ICANN said no to ".kid". Congress voted ".kid.us".

If the "root" is blocked, "cuttings" are free and would/could/will permit the development of an ICANN free network. No Verisign economical model, no Whois, no ccTLD, gTLD, no TM rigid issues, no UDRP, but innovation, sustainable development, etc. We can freely build our own user solutions. Our owne networks. In total compliance with current standards, but in reading them with a more open mind.
